Secondary reason, explanation why running makes you lose weight

[davismith]

I've come to a conclusion, idea that may be widely accepted but I haven't heard it.
When you run your digestion is vastly accellerated due to the up and down and shock movements that occur. I noticed this as I ran 6-7 kilometres for the first time in years and afterwards out came a piece of undigested , raw, intact red meat.
Can you people shed some light, knowledge on this? Is it unhealthy to a degree?
Have you experienced this?

@davismith I don't think it is 'unhealthy' but I really don't think that this is the case. You said the 6-7 kilometers was the first you've ran in years which will upset the homeostasis of anyone's body. It could cause your digestive system to accelerate leaving that piece of red meat not totally digested. When the meat leaves your body no matter what, most of the fat, carbs and protein are already taken out of the food and what you were looking at is essentially still waste but not in the form of shit... If that makes sense at all...

@davismith Got the same results from bicycling back and forth to work 8 miles a day. I just stopped sitting on my ass all the time. That's it.
